THE Pacific Railroad Commission


THE Pacific Railroad Commission is re-
ported to be divided in its verdict. The
dispatches advise us that Messrs. Anderson
and Littler have reported in favor of a
plan of extension of time on per cent.
basis for refunding the claims of the Gov
eminent against the transcontinental roads,
while Governor Pattison will be satisfied
with nothing but the pound of flesh. There
Is not sufficient information as yet given
on the subject to justify any positive opin-
ion, but it looks as if majority of the
Commission is disposed to an adjustment
that will not cripple the roads, or do any
injustice to the Government. 1t is not
known how the report treats the equitable
claims of the Central Pacific Railroad
Company, or the proposition to establish a
tribunal to consider them, and report a
plan of adjustment with these claims in
view. Certainly, this proposition is forti-
fed in the strongest manner by the condi-
tons under which the original Pacific
railroads were constructed, and the service
they have rendered the Government.

II is anomalous that those opposing the
market proposition are those who, as a
rule, pay least taxes, while the citizens who
will have the greater part of the burden
to bear are almost to man in favor of the
levy. The friends of the measure should
work theoretically for it, since it will re-
qulre two-thirds vote to carry it. If it
fails it will long be source of regret, and
cannot but have disheartening influ-
ence upon the progressive spirit Just now
gathering such strength.

To VOTE for the market proposition
means to make an investment that will at
once appreciate the value of property in
Sacramento, and thus by raising assessable
values decrease the rate of taxation.

PRESIDENT CREWS OFFENsE.

President Grevy is human and liable to
err. He made grieyous mistake when
he attempted to shield Wilson, who was
exposed in disgracefu! practices in office.
But something is due Grevy for the affec-
ton he feels for his daughter the wife of
Wilson. The Presidents reputation was
not itself involved. His integrity has
never been questioned, and it did not
therefore become the Chambers to advise
his retiracy because of his mistaken friend
ship for Wilson. 1t was due to the repub-
lie on trial that it should not be imperilled
by such precedent as the President Weld
ing his office at the command of a majority
OF the Deputies. France could better
smother its anger over the Wilson
case than give opportunity to the i'm
perialists, monarchists and communists to
plunge the country into civil war, which
Is inevitable if either Of those factions at
tempt to seize upon the Cover ment
France should not in the presence of Presi-
dent CREWS unfortunate mistake of heart
forget his services. 1t was he who de-
tended the republican principles under
Louis Philippe. In the Assembly of lS4S
he was the foremost champion of constitu-
tional government For his courage of
conviction Napoleon III. sent him to the
Bastile. On the flight of that autocrat
Grevy became President of the National
Assembly, and was the leader of the true
democrats in favor of parliamentary gov
eminent. 1t was he who, when the chief
of the Communists fell before the bullets
of the soldiers in the streets of Paris, Min
lister Washburne saw rise before the vast
crowd of people gathered at that time, and
proclaim to them the formation of the
republic. He was its valiant defender in
all its infantile years, and fairly won the
Presidency in lS79 when he received sos
votes out of 713 cast by the representatives
of the people, and again when in 1885 he
was made President second time, in
obedience to the almost universal demand
q the people. The record of such a man
ought to cover with the mantle of charity
the one chief error of his political life
more especially when his retiracy threatens
the dissolution of the republic.

TIE BLOODY AFFAIR

That occur cd at Jackson, M 49,, last
Thursday, which resulted in the death
OF a journalist Of fair promise, a
young man of moial coursge and high
character, is full Of Instruction and is
profitable for reproof. Had Mr.. Ham

more of killing fellow being than
they do the animals they hunt for

which industry and commerce would

recognizes authority, yet preserves his

and voluntarily subordinates him
self for mutual benefit and mu-
tual protection. The killing of young

proceeding. This secrecy will Of course
be Justified by those taking part in il,
or who are responsible for it, as en-
tirely proper, as the grand jury Of the
county have charge Of 1t. They have
taken testimony, and upon that testi-
mony will, we are informed, pre-
sent Mr.. Hadden for indictment and
trial in the Criminal Court. 1t is to be
presumed the members OF the jury
know what they are about, ard
that they will be fully able to sus-

will be able 10 plume themselves upon

They do net seem to know auy reason

much about the Taxing Districts al

pass upon every pee OF woik done

must, therefore, be as deep in the mud
